Use the higher rate for turf with heavy thatch (greater than 3/4 inch). Apply up to 2nd instar grub of the species being targeted.

Target pest	Location	Rate	Unit	Label notes
Craneflies (Tipula species)	Outdoor			For optimum control, apply at oviposition (egg lay).
Mole crickets (suppression) (Scapteriscus species)	Outdoor			To reduce mole cricket damage, treat from first egg hatch to peak egg hatch.
Chinch bugs (Blissus species), Flea beetles, Leafhoppers, Greenbugs, Sod webworms, Spittlebugs	Outdoor			Apply when young nymphs are first observed. For optimum control, make application when populations are first observed.
Brown Patch (Rhizoctonia solani)	Outdoor	2.0- 2.8	lb. product per 1000 sq. ft.	Apply when conditions are favorable for disease development. Follow up with an application of Heritage G or Headway G 14-21 days after the Caravan G application if needed.
